That I Might Hold Once More Stretching out for endless miles, the road whispering my desires. I follow to the ends of the world, traveling on the wings of fate. Drawn as if against my will, my first steps taken in fear, I race the heavens, hoping to catch the sun, faster and faster still, until life is blurred by speed Time turns inside out, the clock of heaven breaking, cities fall and are remade, only to fall again Traversing eons, I see suns die, and galaxies born, gathering stars in the palm of my hand, I hold the beating heart of the sun My humanity slipping away, becoming one with the cosmic expanse, losing the last tattered shreds of me, light becomes my blood, gravity my bones. Until finally... solace and forgetfulness, as the pain of her leaving fades away, that I might hold once more, the memory of love that never died
